250W Electric Drain Cleaner

E&OE

Application Safety

General Precautions

1. When choosing a machine, be aware of the ratings and specifications. Follow the instructions on the proper

use of the machine. Only use the machine in the application for which it was designed. Improper use of

machine or modifying the drain cleaner for other applications may cause accidental injury or death.

2. Before starting each job, pull the cable out of the drum to make sure that the cable in the drum is not broken

or kinked. Always replace worn (kinked or broken) cables with genuine replacement cables.

Work Area Safety

1. Do not let water get into the drain cleaner. Do not operate the machine when it is wet; wait until it is

completely dry. Do not operate the machine when it is standing in water. This will increase the risk of getting

an electrical shock.

2. Wear safety equipment (gloves and rubber soled, non-slip shoes) and apply safety procedures when the

working area is wet. Use a properly functioning GFCI on the power cord. Put the machine on a dry place.

3. Never operate machines in explosive environments, including areas with flammable liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

4. Be cautious when cleaning drains with cleaning chemicals being applied. Do not let the chemicals come in

direct contact with skin, eyes and the cable. These chemicals can cause serious bums as well as damages

to the cable.

5. Let a second person observe you when working in a narrow space or a special environment, such as in a

boiler room, inside a pipe or on a wet surface. Failure to do so may cause serious injury or death.

6. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating the drain cleaner. Distractions from others may

lead to losing control of the machine.

7. Keep the working area well-lit, neat and clean. Dark zones and cluttered messes can cause unpredictable

accidents.

Personal Safety

1. Wear a working suit, rubber-soled non-slip shoes, safety y glasses, dust mask, hard hat, hearing protection

and leather gloves when operating the machine. Failure to follow this rule may cause serious injury or even

death.

WARNING!

NEVER HOLD A ROTATING CABLE WITH RAGGED OR CLOTHED GLOVES. HOLDING

THE ROTATIONAL CABLE CAN CAUSE HANDS OR FINGERS TO GET CAUGHT ON THE

CABLE AND CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY.

2. Never operate the machine with the belt guard removed. Keep hands away from the pulley and belts.

Fingers can get caught between the belt and pulley.

3. Keep hands away from the rotating drum and distributing cone. Do not reach into the drum unless the

machine is unplugged. Hands can get caught in the moving parts, resulting in serious injury.

4. Be alert at all times. Keep good judgment when operating a machine. Never operate the machine under the

influence of fatigue, drugs, alcohol or medications. A second of inattention can lead to a lifetime of regret.

Wear neat clothing. Do not wear loose cloth or jewellery. Contain your hair. Keep long hair, loose clothes

and gloves away from moving parts. Clothes, long hair, and gloves getting caught can result in serious injury

or death.
